I'll start with some background on myself. My name is Andrew or Andy. I'm twenty-five years old, and now in my second year of college, working on my Mechanical Engineering degree. Before starting college, I was a Hospital Corpsman for six years. I served as a combat medic for the Marines for most of my enlistment. While serving with the Marine unit, I took a test and earned a special pin, the designation of Fleet Marine F...

I'd gotten a lot completed on the house before Winter break. For the first time in six years, I spent Christmas Eve with Mom and Dad. They were in good spirits and getting ready for their trip to Costa Rica in January. It was something they'd wanted to do for a very long time. Mom mentioned they were going to start looking at tour packages for Australia and New Zealand when they returned and planned to go the following De...

Winter break ended, and the Spring semester began at the end of January with a new set of classes, instructors, and classmates. I was proud of my four-point zero grade point average last Fall. Of course, they were all general education classes, which seemed more like a high school rewind. But it was good to remember how things were. Time management was the key, and I excelled at it.

The next morning, I stopped by Jen's office. She wasn't in, so I left a message with my number. During the day, several people I didn't know stopped me and told me thanks for helping Kyle. I didn't realize people knew who I was, and word abou...

Spring break arrived, and I was torn. It meant a break from studying but also meant Jasmine would be gone for two weeks. I did have things to keep me busy, like building my raised beds and working out, but it wasn't the same without Jasmine. I was wondering if I was falling in love. However, in the back of my mind, I debated whether I needed to explore the world more and graduate from college before settling down with one...

That first weekend with Jasmine and Colleen was perfect. We explored in bed and resolved some issues we all had about cohabitating. In the weeks after that, we slowly moved the girls into my house. My school days were hectic with finals, a couple of track meets, and making sure I had everything in order for next semester. I think it was mid-May that Malea texted me to see how the move-in was going. I texted back everythin...
